We did the Felixstowe to Lowestoft section over the weekend. Camped halfway near Thorpeness. It's a fantastic route. Major kudos to whoever put it together – they must really know the area. It's focused on quiet lanes and bridleways and meanders peacefully through glorious countryside.
We stuck with the route, for the most part. The route goes the long and quiet way round and even if, at times, it looks a little odd on the map, it’s usually worth it.
We did it on fixed gear with 28/25c tyres, with racks rigged-on with p-clips. Ideally, we would have had touring/gravel bikes, but we rode most of it without much problem. There was the odd sandy or muddy section where we had to push.
Who knew Suffolk was so pretty. Definitely going back. Highly recommended.
